  Chatham, Kent - Wikipedia
Chatham is an English town that developed around an important naval dockyard on the east bank of the River Medway in the county of Kent.
Chatham dockyard was established by Henry VIII and the small village of Chatham grew in size.
Chatham stood on Watling Street, the Roman road from London to the Kent Coast; the length of it from Chatham to Canterbury was turnpiked in 1730, to become the A2 main road in the 1920s.

 WELCOME TO THE HAWTHORNE MOTEL -- Chatham, Cape Cod, Massachusetts
Chatham is one of the few places in the country where you can see the sun come up (over the Atlantic) and go down (into Nantucket Sound) over the water.
Located as it is on the Cape's outer elbow, Chatham is also quieter than the other towns on the Cape, a place where night life takes a backseat to genuine New England life.
Covering an area of approximately seventeen square miles, the historic village of Chatham sits on the "elbow" of Cape with Nantucket Sound to the South, the Atlantic Ocean to the East, and Pleasant Bay winding in and around to the north, Chatham is surrounded by nearly 70 miles of shoreline.

 Chatham, Conn. Vital Records   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The name Chatham came from a shipbuilding town in England and many settlers came from Chatham, Cape Cod, which further influenced the naming of the town.
Chatham encompassed Middle Haddam, a stretch of land along the Connecticut River; Cobalt, a section of land centering around Route 66 and Depot Hill Road; as well as a large portion of land encircling Lake Pocotopaug.
In 1767, the town was incorporated as Chatham in honor of the Earl of Chatham in England for his support of the American colonies at that time.

 Richard Dadd - Artist and Madman - Victorian painter of Faeries
Dadd left Phillips and returned to England, where his family had a physician specializing in mental illness examine him (Dadd's brother had been acting strange of late as well.) The doctor found him to be "non compos mentis", legally not of sound mind.
Meanwhile, back in England, the authorities, having found Dadd's father, were now busily searching the area now known as "Dadd's Hole" for signs of Richard, whom they feared had fallen victim to the same murderer.
Dadd was sent to England in July of 1844 for trial and was committed to the famous insane asylum known as Bedlam, at age 27.
